About

I’m a design leader with 13+ years of experience building and scaling products in the Indian tech ecosystem. I specialize in taking ideas from 0-to-1 and growing them into high-impact, customer-centric platforms. My background in engineering and product design allows me to move fast from strategy to execution, building solutions that balance user needs, business outcomes, and technical realities. Having grown up deaf, I care deeply about accessibility and believe great design should create equal opportunity and dignity for every user. At Swiggy, I’ve launched and scaled 12+ products—including Crew, Instamart, Swiggy Minis, and the Swiggy Driver App. After leading design for Instamart’s B2C and B2B experiences for 5+ years, I currently lead the design vision for Crew, an AI-powered personal concierge that uses LLMs, automation, and human-in-the-loop workflows to deliver premium assistance at scale. I’m passionate about building high-performing design teams—developing talent, establishing strong design culture, and enabling designers to take ownership, move fast, and deliver meaningful impact. I’m motivated by hard problems, complex systems, and products that improve everyday life.
